Slimming Through The Winter - Slimming World Support Thread 2018

Whiplashy

Hi everyone. I forgot just how fast this thread moves! Couldn't sleep last night and caught up on the thread at about 3am :rotfl: Wrote a big long essay and for some reason lost it :mad: The important bits though: Congrats to the losers :T Big hugs to those struggling with both weight loss and personal issues. And great news about the operation Kathrynha.

I've had a pretty much perfect week on plan. Did 3 days SP. Have been drinking my 2 litres of water a day. Only used about half my syns, and used them on food rather than junk. I'm sure that won't last though :rotfl: I felt like I needed to get the junk food out of my system after WAY over indulging over Christmas. The only thing I've slacked on is my HEA. I got some brie when I was shopping as I thought that would be a nice change. Then discovered it's not an A choice I've been syning it, and then don't feel like having other cheese, and I would never get through 250ml of milk in a day since I've not been having porridge.

Weigh in tonight, and I don't want to jinx it, but I feel smaller. Hoping for a nice big first week loss to keep me focused. Wouldn't mind getting my half stone award either....:D

head mostly in the game today:
breakfast: aldi strawberry skyr (1syn) and melon
lunch: homemade cauli and carrot soup
tea: heb cereal with milk from hea
syns: go ahead pretzel bites (4.5) 4 x quality street (8)

really like the aldi skyr - not tried any other flavours yet but so filling and yummy!

off out to that choir open rehearsal soon to see how/if i like it!

Hello, Ish67, pleased to meet you.

Hugs, Kathryn. Hope you feel better soon.

Oh, ginger, what a nerve wracking wait you’ll have until your passport arrives!

Hope you enjoyed your choir rehearsal, lush.

It’s been a good day chez greentiger!
Breakfast: scrambled eggs, herbs, smoked salmon, mushrooms, tomatoes, hexb toast with 6g butter (yes, I weighed the toast before and after I scraped the butter on – 2 syns)
Lunch: baked sweet potato, tuna mayo (1), cherry tomatoes, syboes, banana
Dinner: stir fried garlic beef (6.5 – :eek:), noodles, Milbona Greek Style fat free lemon yogurt
Snack: hexa cheese & grapes

Well, after writing that down and checking the syns, it turns out it wasn’t as good a day as I’d believed. Who’d have thought that ½ tablespoon of sesame seeds would be so synful (2.5 of my stir fry’s total ☹).

I had a nom nom day today.

Brunch: kipper kedgeree (4 syns)
Dinner: lamb shank, mashed potato, green beans, carrots (5 syns)

Not caught up, just reporting a 1 1/2lb loss

Oh gfb , that's a dreadful tale! Do let us know when the passport arrives.:)

Hope you feel better soon kathrynha and that you really enjoy your choir lush .

I think that (along with planning) having at least a third of Speed food every day is the key to success with SW. Personally I'd have more veg than fruit but I think SW recognised that when they revamped the lists.

There wasn't a brilliant selection on the lunch menu. I had Hunter's chicken with salad and a jp AND I stuck to drinking water. I'm allowing a generous 10 syns for the BBQ sauce, cheese and salad dressing. I've got berries and yogurt to snack on later if I'm hungry.

Hi my lovlies, first time posting on here. I’d love to join please. My problem is I don’t eat hardly anything during the day but still can’t shed the weight. Have been told it’s coz I’m not eating 😱. I don’t eat breakfast which apparently is the biggest mistake. My first intake of food is around midday, which is usually a slice of toast & a tea with no sugar followed by my dinner @ around 6.15pm. Occasionally a cuppa & one biscuit @ about 8pm. HELP ..!!!! 🙏🏽

Welcome, yes you def need to eat more
Ginger, hope you get your passport x

REporting a STS.

Back from group and I've decided the scales is broken :rotfl: Nevertheless I'm going to report my loss as -10 lb please kathrynha :rotfl: Which is just absolutely ridiculous :rotfl: I'll be amazed if there's any loss next week after that. Going to have a bakewell tart to celebrate which is tiny and 10 syns :eek: but it's within my syns. Last time I joined SW I lost 5.5 the first week so was hoping I'd eek it out to 7 this time. I must have been retaining a lot of fluid after Xmas. The mad thing is there was another girl who lost 1.5 more than me :eek: My consultant was thrilled with herself :rotfl:
